Dave and Cam's Peru Adventure

Hello!  I know it has been a while, but I'm finally getting around to updating this thing!  This is our first really free Saturday.  David is of course putting the finishing touches on the house.  Our renters are moving in tomorrow.  Please pray for them as they adjust to living in a new place with their first baby on the way.  I, however, am determined to hang out at the quad for most of the day and catch up on some paperwork and cleaning and laundry.  Being a missionary does not eliminate the problem of having to do laundry unfortunately.  In the past two weeks, we've learned a whole lot more.  We learned the T4T training method, doctrine, got our ESL certificates (they spelled my name wrong though), persecuted church and Bible storying.  Our favorite was probably the persecuted church- what an eye opening two days that was!  Please don't forget to be praying for people groups under severe persecution!  We've also been impressed with the need to develop our Bible Storying technique.  Its amazing how much of our world is oral.  If you want to know more about storying or the need for it, please send us an email!  We'd love to share some of what we've learned with you.  Please pray for us as we learn this new technique and practice it for the next few weeks.  We've been having fun too, don't worry!  I've taken up knitting and crocheting again with a large group of ladies who are in all stages of skill level and we are having fun doing that!  We've also been playing volleyball every Wednesday night and I'm holding in the competitiveness for the most part:)  We have gone out with some awesome people, played games, and laughed a lot.  We've also tried to make sure we keep a night of the week just for us.  Last night we went to the Byrd which is always fun!  We have about 3.5 weeks left here and it feels like it is flying by.  We are still waiting on definite dates of departure for Guatemala, but have settled into the South America mindset already- so we aren't worried about it.  Its hard to be worried about much here because they take such good care of you here. 

Please remember to be praying for the Quechua people.  One thing we've learned here is that prayer is not just nice and helpful, but it is critical.  And not just prayer for us, but especially prayer for the people we will be going out to.  Pray for hearts to stirred to the gospel, for persons of peace, and for a good crop for them this year.  

Please please please let us know how we can be praying for you all!
